IE 6.0 Freezes!!!!!

[Rissie :\)]

Hi guys!

When I am browsing a web site, IE 6.0 will freeze all of a
sudden.. i can open up another window and browse some
more, but then it happens again. It locks up when i click
on a link, and it starts to think, and then it freezes. I
don't know what the HECK is going on!!

Thanks for everything guys!

installing update them, then boot into safe mode and run them. You
should update and run them weekly.
